I can understand that, and it's one of the many drawbacks of party systems. It's also exactly what Republicans have done for decades for anything in government.

Ina world where corporations only care about the next quarter, and politicians begin their term by starting the next campaign, how can we get long range plans completed? We've done many huge projects over many years in the past, but in today's instant gratification that seems impossible. Anything worth doing is going to cost a lot up front, it's called an investment in the future.
